They manage a property that is next to our community. They have allowed the grass to grow up on a vacant parcel that is next to our entrance. Weve been trying to get them to do a simple task...cut the grass so we can see down the street when turning out of our neighborhood. They have created a safety hazard for everyone in this community and their families. Why any company would want that liability is beyond me. Complete disregard for peoples safety. Ive contacted a number of different people to no avail. I suppose when someone gets hit pulling out and files a lawsuit, then the grass will

Not all brokerage firms are created equal, and TPG proves that. They go above and beyond and are truly first-rate. Over the years I've worked with several of their agents on both the Landlord and Tenant rep side. I absolutely recommend their services.

I have worked with the Providence Group where they served the role as a landlord leasing agent, a property manager and as a tenant representative. They were first class in each role and I can not recommend utilizing this company for your Commerical real estate needs enough.

This is the premier full-service commercial real estate firm in the Charlotte area. I have been a client for more than 20 years and have watched them grow from a small group of retail land brokers to a firm that has added leasing, property management and retail development to their list of services. The firm was built on a core group of hard-working, honest & ethical partners that have continued to expand with that same philosophy in their hiring practices. Highly recommend!!

Got the run around for an electrical issue at first because the representative did not know our property name by our address. One lady finally found our account. She helped and forwarded my request. She was very nice. Our senior property manager was mot much help at all. She told us well have to call other people or an electrician. I thought that was kind of unprofessional and it left me hanging. Im kind of concerned about what they actually provide help with since that seemed to be an issue for the property management company but I guess they dont provide much help in anything else but

We partnered directly with Darren Wood on a major retail tenant expansion into the West. He and his staff were thorough, helpful, informed and competent throughout our assignment. They are hands down the retail experts in their market, and stay involved with their relationships throughout any transitions necessary to serve the clients with the utmost of customer service!
